I can't load UT2k4!

[jds2006]

I just reinstalled UT2K4 because I was having problems playing in servers, but now that it's been reinstalled it won't even work anymore! Everytime I try to load it up, I get this error message:

UT2004 Build UT2004_Build_[2004-03-03_02.42]

OS: Windows XP 5.1 (Build: 2600)
CPU: GenuineIntel Unknown processor @ 3070 MHz with 485MB RAM

General protection fault!

How can I fix this??

Oh noes!

I'm not sure why that error is being caused, but i'd suggest uninstalling again.

Then make sure that the entire C:\UT2004 folder is gone.

Also, while i don't think is an issue, i'd also go into the registry & delete the keys for it.

Hit start button > Run > type regedit
Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > software > delete the Unreal Technology key.

Then resinstall UT2k4.
For after UT2k4 is installed:
Now i'm not sure if you have downloaded the ECE Pack & the Community Bonus Packs, but if you do have them, install the CBP1 & CBP2 first, & then the ECE pack.
Then follow those with the 3369 patch.

Or, if you can, just get this pack: http://www.unrealtournament.com/news/view.php?id=2996
That would give you ECE & the latest patch, & you can download the CBP1/2 mappacks later if you want, since IIRC, you don't have them.


Editted: Oh ffs :laugh:

I typed all that out, had supper, then posted it only to see you've fixed the issue
